Depends entirely on the solubility of the coating of the tablet and the contents of the stomach.

For non coated or lightly coated tablets without any release control the dissolving is virtually immediate. As designed - the chemical will then pass into the blood either in the stomach or the intestines - depending on how effective the chemical is on absorption.
This can happen immediately or take many minutes.

Time released medications are just that. Designed to release at certain intervals or a time limit which is set by the manufacturer, It still varies by the conditions.

Now if you are talking about a tablet like an artists drawing tablet? Well that could take quite a while. Computer Graphic tablets? well the various parts digest at different rates and I could not give you a meaningful answer to that one sorry.
